Nitroglycerine actions

Glucagon action

Natural polypeptide hormone secreted by the pancreas. Released to breakdown stored glycogen to glucose and inhibits the synthesis of glycogen from glucose. Acts onreceptor sites similar to those of epinephrine producing catecholamine like effects.

3

Ondasetron action

blocks serotonin receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone. It has little effect on vomiting caused by motion sickness.

Diphenhydramine dose

Adult25 – 50mg IV/IM/PO

Glucagon indication

Carbohydrate

48

Morphine action

Morphine is a natural opium alkaloid that acts on the opiate receptors in the brain. Provides both analgesic and sedative effects. Vasodilatation, reduction of venous return and decrease of myocardial oxygen demand

52

Dopamine indication

Cardiogenic shock (pulmonary edema with NON-HYPOVOLEMIC hypotension)

Anaphylaxis refractory to epinephrine and fluid boluses

Bradycardia refractory to atropine and pacing

Shock states with Hemodynamically significant hypotension in the ABSENCE of

Hypovolemia (sepsis, neurogenic shock).

Crush injury

53

Diphenhydramine contraindication

Asthma and other lower respiratory diseases

54

Aspirin action

Aspirin produces analgesia and reduces inflammation and fever by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins. It decreases platelet aggregation.

55
